New product developed;
OCXO with world-leading 3 ppb frequency temperature characteristic (20 × 20 mm)
Nihon Dempa Kogyo Co., Ltd. (NDK) has developed a new Twin-OCXO ™ Series
oven-controlled crystal oscillator (OCXO) with frequency temperature characteristics of max.
±3 × 10-9 in the temperature range from -40°C to +85°C, representing the highest performance
level of any 20 × 20 mm-class unit. (PIN type: model NH20M20LB, dimensions: 20.0 × 20.0 ×
10.5 mm; SMD type: model NH25M22TA, dimensions: 25.4 × 22.0 × 12.1 mm).
This OCXO has been developed in response to higher demand for smaller electronic devices
and more widespread use of surface mount devices (SMDs) for increasingly smaller
communication equipment in base stations for mobile communications or optical transmission
devices.
To meet these needs, NDK has used its proprietary twin crystal technology of Twin-OCXO™,
temperature control technology with digital signal processing and in addition a hermetic sealing
package for excellent environmental-proof performance. The results produce the required
compactness and even higher stability for reference frequency simultaneously.
The OCXO covers the frequency range from 5 to 40 MHz, and is available with 12 standard
frequency levels (10, 12.8, 13, 16.384, 19.2, 20, 25, 26, 30.72, 38.4, 38.88 and 40 MHz) so that
customers can promptly test samples.
Engineering sample delivery is scheduled for October 2013, and the start of mass production
is scheduled for January 2014.
Note1; NDK will showcase the new product at the CEATEC Japan 2013 event, held from
October 1 to 5, at Makuhari Messe (Chiba city). (NDK booth: No. 2A60, Hall 2).
Note2; Twin-OCXO™ is the NDK’s trademark of the OCXO using NDK’s proprietary twin
crystal technology (trademark registration pending in Japan).
